    I also had the same initial thoughts about the 29+. However, my Krampus is a lot more nimble than its dimensions and look suggest.

    A year ago I was looking for a geared bike as a more "trail" oriented ride. Tried a few fat bikes, but couldn't get over how cumbersome they were. Traction is immense, but they are, for want of a better word, "lazy"? I've been riding my 29+ Krampus for a year now, and it's brilliant. More grip than I'll ever need, but it rides like my other 29er in terms of getting up to speed, etc. Much as it pains me to say it, I think 27+ will get much more traction[emoji1] in the market due to the buy in from bigger manufacturers like Spez, etc

    Its a very addictive hobby. I've got around 25 now, but no pokies. Too fast and too venomous for my liking.

    Good choice of trails

    Was a great day out. Decided to take the SS when I saw the weather and I'm glad i did. Plenty of mud to slog through and saw plenty of broken derailleurs and chains as well as wheels completely jammed up against frames with all the mud.

    Frame's too big. Also, I'm at S-1. I have these too https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/148888-superstar-wheels-for-sale-26-price-drop/

    I have a 140mm Fox TALAS that would go really well with this bad boy..........

    Try it. If you like the suspension fork, keep it on, if you don't swop back to the rigid. My personal preference is for the rigid fork, but it can beat you up.

    Between the_nerd and myself, we have a huge amount of lego and all the boxes and instructions. It's currently all at our parents house. Our children will be allowed to play with it, but it's not to leave that house. Obviously, this means I have to start my son's collection from scratch. Oh no..........

    Circa 1987. Please note the price. Just waiting for my son to get old enough, then I'll bring the blocks down out the roof.

    I saw them. Perfectly acceptable, especially the happy one. Did you at least get a PM from a mod?

    I asked the same question, but the one pedal is definitely bent, I've ridden the bike.

    I have the standard steel filter and its better than the paper filters. They release more oils into the coffee. You just need to grind the beans slightly coarser to compensate for the bigger holes. Oh, and read the instructions. The Able disk needs to be put on correctly else it blocks
